Accompanying these novice fisherman were a group of off-duty San Francisco Police Officers bent on providing these kids with thrills they had never before experienced. Nearly forty years after those first few fishing trips, the San Francisco Police Youth Fishing Program is still an integral part of recreational opportunities for Bay Area youngsters. More than 130,000 boys and girls have participated in the Program since its inception and every exciting trip has been escorted by at least one officer. The police officers who work with kids in the San Francisco Police Youth Fishing Program donate much of their off-duty time to participate with kids in fishing activities.. Our volunteer police officers teach kids how to fish and how to enjoy the natural beauty and resources of the San Francisco Bay and the coastal Pacific Ocean. ______________________________________________________________________________

But without a doubt, the work we’ve been doing with the Free MUNI for youth coalition has the potential to impact positively the greatest number of young people. –And the moment of truth is this month! To date, with the overwhelming support of so many community members, the Free MUNI for Youth Coalition has convinced the SFMTA Board of Directors to contribute $4.3 million to making MUNI free for low-income youth. The total budget for a two year pilot project is about $9.5 million. A few weeks ago, we secured another $400 thousand from the SF Transportation Authority for the program. Now, we need to get the remainder of the funds. And our target is the Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC), a intergovernmental body.Please save the date and come with us to these critical meetings at the MTC’s Oakland headquarters (literally right next to BART–very easy to get to!)
